They still had to consider Shi Zhong’s words.
After the police officers finished asking the questions they wanted to ask as usual, they saw Shi Man sitting on the sofa quietly drinking tea. They suddenly asked seriously, “Miss Shi, did you cause the wound on Miss Zheng’s neck?”
“Yes.” Shi Man put down her teacup and admitted openly, “At that time, she kidnapped my mother and wanted to poison her. 1 was defending myself. Can’t I?”
“Of course.” The police officer felt her hostility and sighed helplessly. “What I want to say is that Miss Zheng’s injuries are not serious, and Chief Zheng doesn’t intend to pursue the issue. Don’t worry.”
“Yes, I understand,” Shi Man replied coldly and continued to look down at the morning news in her hand.
There were too many people involved yesterday. Early in the morning, the newspapers were filled with reports of what happened at the engagement party yesterday. There were even photos of Zheng Xin causing a scene at the engagement party.
The media commented on Zheng Xin’s crazy actions. If not for Chief Zheng’s personal status, they would probably have spoken more drastic words about Zheng Xin.
However, this was not what Shi Man cared about.
She was reading another piece of news. Although it only occupied a small section of the news and newspapers, it was still especially eye-catching.
This was because the headline of this news was: “A bulletless pistol has appeared in an abandoned building. The event location is covered in blood!”
Shi Man roughly read the entire story. It was basically the media’s guess. As for what the police thought of this matter, they would probably not announce it to the public easily.
She had already released the bait with Zheng Xin. Next, it depended on whether she was willing to grab the only chance to live.
In the basement, Jun Mo sat behind his desk in a daze. His fingers trembled, and he even forgot to flick away the cigarette ash. Only when the cigarette butt burned his hand did he suddenly throw the cigarette butt into the ashtray.
A figure rushed in from outside.
Jun Mo looked at him and his eyes suddenly widened. “How is it? Did Cheng Zhen die?”
“He’s not dead yet.” The secretary stood in front of the desk, panting. He reported the results of his investigation from the hospital.
Now that they were still absconding, they could not interact with their connections outside anymore. This would cause them to waste time and energy.
Fortunately, he was not dead yet, so he was not done for.
Jun Mo heaved a sigh of relief. A smile finally appeared on his tense face. “It’s good that you’re not dead. It’s good that you’re not dead. This matter has nothing to do with us. Perhaps it was done by Cheng Zhen’s enemies!”
“Boss.” The secretary hesitantly interrupted his beautiful fantasy. “But it’s already been published in the newspapers and news. Last night, someone picked up a pistol from the place we traded. It’s your pistol…”
“My pistol?” Jun Mo was stunned for a moment. Then, he remembered that he had once been humiliatingly beaten up by a woman and even had his gun snatched away. He slapped the table angrily and said, “Damn it, why did that gun appear there!”
As soon as he finished speaking, before anyone could answer, he reacted and said, “Someone wanted to harm us. That’s right! If Cheng Zhen didn’t die when that gun appeared and saw that news, he would definitely suspect that 1 deliberately didn’t deal with him yesterday!”
The secretary had obviously thought of this too. He frowned and asked with a solemn expression, “Boss, what should we do now? That gun is in the hands of the police now. It’s only a matter of time before Cheng Zhen finds out.”
Jun Mo leaned back in his chair dejectedly. His trembling lips suddenly pursed into a straight line, and his hesitant eyes gradually turned vicious.
He suddenly kicked the chair away and stood behind the desk, panting crazily. “Then we might as well go all out. As long as Cheng Zhen shuts up forever, the police won’t be able to contact us so easily! That batch of firearms was all blown up! They don’t have any evidence!”
The secretary had also guessed that his boss would do this. The people in charge of taking action had long been arranged. However, the most serious problem now was not Cheng Zhen.
He waited for Jun Mo to regain his rationality before carefully reminding him, “Boss, although it’s important to deal with Cheng Zhen, there’s still a problem that we need to figure out.”
Jun Mo narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “Why does anyone know about my deal with Cheng Zhen?”
This was what the secretary had been waiting for.
In fact, he had already thought of a suspect on the way over. When he heard his question, he immediately analyzed for him. “Now that the Nighthawks have split into two, Zhu Wen, who should have inherited all of Zhu Meng’s power, can only fish at sea. However, Cheng Zhen is doing well. Moreover, these two factions used to form the Nighthawks. It’s hard to guarantee that their subordinates won’t leak the news.”
He deliberately pointed the finger at Zhu Wen, but Jun Mo lowered his eyes and weighed the other matter. His voice was so cold that it made one shiver. “Do you think what happened to Cheng Zhen this time was like the scene when Zhu Meng died?”
At that time, Nighthawk and Hellgate were in a mess. Both sides were pointing their guns at each other. No one noticed who fired the first shot and actually killed Zhu Meng..
